The Olympia Spartans will venture away from home to face off against the Peoria Notre Dame Irish at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. Olympia has now lost nine straight, leaving the team hunting for their first win since January 28.
It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 85-53, which was the final score in Olympia's tilt against PORTA/Ashland-Chandlerville Central on Friday. While losing is never fun, the Spartans can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Illinois basketball rankings (they are ranked 485th, while the Bluejays are ranked 160th).
Meanwhile, Peoria Notre Dame made easy work of Normal West on Tuesday and carried off a 62-42 win.
Peoria Notre Dame is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 11-17 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 57.2 points over those games. Olympia's loss dropped their record down to 8-19.
